hope you can help me. Is there a way to create an event—or something similar—to slightly alter the way the player dies?

In other words, upon death, the player would remain in a "dead" state on the ground, unable to move or perform any actions. A window would appear indicating they are dead, featuring a countdown timer; once it reaches zero, a "resurrect" button would become available.

Something like in WoW or other games?

Do you have any recommendations on how to achieve this using the base engine?

Perhaps a plugin or a code modification? If there is a guide available on the forum, could you please share it with me?

 the simplest way to show that im trying to do is to link a google doc .

any help would be appreciated

Say by default I wanted individual player names to either remain hidden or display some sort of text like "An unknown stranger",

When a player utilizes a command, we will call it /in, all players within we'll say a one square radius of the player initializing the command will now be able to see that player's name.

Or if I have "An unkown stranger", when that player utilizes /in, and I am near I'd then be able to see that player's name instead.

Thanks again everyone.

All the help is very much appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your advice and assistance. 

Does anyone know if the variables are bugged in the last patch? because before I could do pvp arenas without any problem

(Example of the system they where using)

I'm looking to create a common event for random books that can be found in the world - Clicking on a bookshelf will have an event manually tied to it "Book 1" etc. and when opening, a large/full screen text window will appear to display text. Right now, the text windows in my client are on the smaller side, and I was wondering if there was a way to adjust it's size through a setting somewhere, or is there an event type for displaying text that I'm missing? Other than that I figured I could create images and have them display, but this might eat up into the size of the game files itself. 

Thank you!

is there anyone out there that knows how to create a projectile turret from events?

that shoots something like flaming arrows from a wall as you walk past it,

and it does damage to the player?

i have tried with a npc set to "static"

and i cant get them to shoot 

if i set them to "stand still" and put some npc avoid blocks around them 

it shoots, but....

it turns to where the player is, and sometimes its not ideal for the situation i am trying to create

if i put a npc down and put some normal blocks around it and replace one normal block with one npc avoid where i want the projectile to shoot from

make it so the projectile shoots from up, right, down and left

and set the projectile's ignore collision "map blocks" = false

it works but it looks messy, as it wastes 3 full projectiles on the wall around it, also if i have 20 of them on 1 map im guessing it would gather some lag?

as it would be as if there were 80 projectiles shooting at one time

im wondering if i am missing something very simple?

is there a way to apply damage only when the spikes are out?

 Just started learning about variables. I'd like to run 1.5x or 2x exp events for players during specific times and am not sure how to do this or if its even possible with the current version's limits. Thank you in advance !

I'm having a play with the latest pre-release, and more specifically, the warp to instance event. Has anyone been using it who can give me a basic rundown? For example, does 'Shared' mean for a party? Will all members of said group (e.g guild) be warped when someone activates the event?

Cheers.

If I put greater than or equal to, I just level up instantly over and over. Yet Leaving at equal to if I gain over the set amount it doesn't trigger the level up.

Example here: @set player variable Cooking Exp (Add 5)

I gain 5 exp per cooked item but if I go over set Value of 100, it doesn't trigger the level up.

Problem: The NPCs spawned during the event multiply with every player in the party that warps to the map.

Event Details:

~ Player checks a Map Event 'Runic Circle' - If player has a 'Runic Shard' item, the player is warped to an instanced dungeon called 'Runic Run'.

~ Any party members are also are warped. (This does not effect outside players)

~ A timer is started and 4 NPCs are spawned.

~ After a set duration, the Boss is spawned.
~The instance ends when either: Timer runs out, or Boss is defeated.
~Players are warped back to original Map.
~Players who log out and reenter the map will be warped to original map (to stop greifing)

~Defeating the Boss rewards an item. +Text.
~The Instance is Locked while it is active to outside players.

I've been testing this for the past 2 days and everything works wonderful besides the NPCs multiplying.

I could keep this as a 'feature' but id like to know how to prevent this.

Map Event Trigger:

Common Event - NPC Trigger:

Common Event - Player(s) Warp Trigger:

Common event - Timer Trigger:

Common event - Player Kick (on Login):

How do I fix it so that they only play when you interact at that part of the quest?

I'm wondering if it's possible to use exp as a currency once you've hit max level to exchange for more stat points or increase max hp/mp. If not for these things, then for other more straightforward things like a shop.

Creation is quite straightforward: Create an event with two pages, one for closed and one for open door state. The door works fine and it blocks the player correctly depending on whether the event is set passable or not. But NPCs don't seem to respect passable? The problem I'm having is if this event based door is closed, not only can I shoot through it with projectiles, but also NPCs can walk through it. Any tips?

Has anyone done something like this before? I'm sure it's pretty simple, but I just can't get it to work. I'm probably using the wrong trigger commands or variables?

I want a common event with a constant taking variable that items and other entities can check.

Any ideas?

the character  I created in the editor shows up in there. But when i open the client the character and the class dont show up. Pls help

I've been trying doing an easy spell combo system

I know some way of doing it and was trying this one :

Init Combo -> Combo 1 -> Combo 2 -> Init Combo/Nothing

Var combo  0 or 3  ->   Var combo  1 - -> Var combo  2 -> 0

To launch Init combo you needed var combo 0 

For combo 1 you need var combo 1

For combo 2 you need var combo 2

Simple.

the thing is : to make the combo counting up, i treat the spell as an event wich trigger the common event Combo.

I've been trying to do it on one event page only (I know i can also use one common event for each spell, but i was trying to save place and gain clarity) 

 And !  I wanted the var count to go back to 0 if you don't use the combo in the next 5 seconds.

So it looked something like that, alas i didn't work as intended and i was never able to use the Combo 2 spell

. 

So, i've tried using Self Switch :

Absolutely doesn't work at all. it seems that common event cannot self switch ? As far as i know i've seen that "Global" Npc cannot use the set route event (Another story)

Finally my last test seems to be the good one :

So far it seems to be working.

One regret, when using the "Event" Type option, the spell tooltips doesn't state about the dmg output, the range, conditions, etc...

So my main questions are :

- Are common event able to self switch ?

- Is there another way to make combo like this ? (I know i can also use a simple counter wich go up when using spell and make some spell use it, like rogue on wow. Or use several common event : one for each combo)

- Is there a list of these kind of limitation  ? (Like set route for global event not working)

- Is there a way to get a tooltips beside descripting everything in desc windows ?

Thanks by advance is someone know something !
